Package biography
His past is a mystery. Unbelievable rumors about him sweep through the people as if a wind passes. He changed one of the Seven Cities into a mountain of rubbles, made a big hole on the Fifth Moon, and some say he was directly involved in the Big Fall, the crash of the spaceships, over a hundred years ago. There are many who doubt the existence of this half legendary figure. However, on the other hand, those few who had dealt with him closely tell of his true nature. His good nature is unparalleled but credulous. He hates conflicts. A crybaby who is a pacifist. Yet those rumors have just one thing in common. That is, he is superbly skilled in gun techniques. Once his gun is fired, no enemy remains standing. Conflicts end unquestionably. If there’s one more thing that’s certain about him, it’s that this devil who wears a red coat is watching people’s lives from a distance. He appears and disappears throughout the history of the planet. Are there many men who carry this name from generation to generation? Or is this one and the same person. His past is a mystery.
